Там нет меня [Tam Net Menya] [English translation]

I'm not there,

Where your footprints on the golden sand left no trace?

Where a white seabird

Where in anguish a white seabird cries loudly over a frothy wave,

I'm only there,

Where the sound trembles at the lips of the desired berth

And where your eyes like two black swifts,

And where your eyes like two black swifts intently glide above the earth.

I'm not there,

Where the smoke of my grey hair won't cloud a bright day,

Where the amber tears from the pines,

Where the amber tears from the pines a caring dear will wipe away.

I'm only there,

Where sometimes you look with hope at the door with teary eyes,

And like a child with other kids,

And like a little child with other kids you build a snowman outside.

I'm not there,

Where at night the ship roared angrily while leaving home,

Where the sky above understands,

Where the sky above understands, without you I'm so alone.

I’m only there,

I’m not away, I’m around you but still invisible.

You know, without you a single day,

You know, I can't live a single day without you, apparently.
